Direct from Bill Abbott’s professional repertoire and showcased in his recent best selling book Table Magic, Stabbed and Shot is a killer card stab with a shot glass production that comes out of nowhere!
The Routine
A card is selected from a shuffled deck – signed – returned and shuffled by a spectator. An empty paper bag that is examined by the audience and the deck is tossed inside. A spectator is asked to shake the bag to mix the cards and make the finding of the chosen card even more impossible. A knife is produced and is stabbed into (and through!) the bag. Violently the knife is ripped from the bag and a single card is impaled on the end of the blade…the spectators signed selection!
Just when the audience applause has died down the performer reaches into the bag and produces a large shot glass filled to the brim with water! (Or other liquid.)
Stabbed & Shot Considerations:
- Perform Stabbed & Shot in short sleeves.
- Perform Stabbed & Shot close-up and surrounded.
- Stabbed & Shot instantly resets. The shot glass production uses real liquid and is bulletproof and safe.
- Stabbed & Shot can be performed on stage.
- Reveal one or two cards at the point of a knife.
- You can even borrow the bag, the knife and the deck!
